摘要

世界卫生组织(世卫组织)确定自杀,即有自杀念头或行为的经历,包括企图自杀,是一个持续存在的全球公共卫生问题。世卫组织估计,2016年超过79%的自杀事件发生在中低收入国家,其中60%发生在亚洲。自杀往往被少报,并被错误地归类为其他原因导致的死亡。因此,很难获得准确的信息。在预算有限、立法障碍和社会污名化的发展中国家,这一问题更加严重。这些现实要求研究人员承担更大的责任来收集和解释数据。本研究在马来西亚的176名大学生样本中解决了这个问题。自杀行为问卷修订版(SBQ-R)检查了个人对自杀的态度和行为,并收集了性别、年龄、种族和宗教等人口统计信息。数据分析使用社会科学统计软件包(SPSS,版本25)。结果显示没有显著的性别影响,但宗教之间存在显著差异。这是根据缓冲效果和少数多数地位来讨论的。本研究增加了马来西亚大学生这一高危群体对自杀的认识。建议预防和干预和未来的研究。

SUICIDALITY: COLLEGE STUDENTS’ ATTITUDES AND BEHAVIOURS IN MALAYSIA
The World Health Organization (WHO) identifies suicidality, the experience of suicidal thoughts or behaviour including attempts, as an ongoing global public health concern. The WHO estimated that more than 79% of suicides in 2016 occurred in low to middle income nations, with 60% of these occurring in Asia. Suicides are often underreported and misclassified as death by other causes. As a result, obtaining accurate information is difficult. This problem is exacerbated in developing countries facing limited budgets, legislative barriers, and social stigma. These realities place greater responsibility on researchers to collect and interpret data. This study addressed this issue in a sample of 176 college students in Malaysia. The Suicide Behaviours Questionnaire-Revised (SBQ-R), which examines individual attitudes and behaviour concerning suicide, was administered and demographic information was collected on gender, age, ethnicity, and religion. Data were analysed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS, version 25). Results showed no significant gender effects, but there were significant differences across religions. This is discussed in terms of buffering effects and minority-majority status. This study increases knowledge about suicidality among college students in Malaysia, a high-risk group. Recommendations for prevention and intervention and future research are included.
